Aoun Says FPM Preparing for Protests as Bassil Vows to Take Partnership by Force
The Free Patriotic Movement's call for street protests took a new turn on Saturday after its chief Michel Aoun revealed plans to hold demonstrations in several districts and his son-in-law Foreign Minister Jebran Bassil vowed to take “partnership by force.”
“The Christians of the Orient are being eliminated by the sword and they want to eliminate us politically,” Aoun told his supporters in Rabieh.
“This is why we started preparing for popular movements and demonstrations in the districts of Mount Lebanon, Baabda and Koura,” he said as the delegation from south Lebanon cheered.
Aoun, who heads the Change and Reform parliamentary bloc, has been recently hinting that his movement is preparing for protests to what he calls attempts by his rivals to end the role of Christians in Lebanon.
He made the announcement on Saturday a day after he urged Christians to take to the streets.
“We Christians are facing an existential threat because the foxes of Lebanese politics are usurping all the rights and posts of Christians,” said Aoun at the annual dinner banquet of FPM's Metn committee.
The lawmaker's warning came as Bassil said the FPM's dispute with its rivals “is not over appointments but over partnership and dignity.”
“We will take partnership by force if we had no other option,” he said.
Bassil, who is a top FPM official, vowed to keep fighting to defend the authorities of the president.
“No one will put its hand on it as long as we are here,” he warned.

the judicialwatch docs are the analysis of a us intelligence analyst made a year and a half into the revolt in syria. the revolt became armed after almost six months of non stop murders by the regime of his unarmed people. in iraq it was nouri al maliki's divisive crimnal iranian dictates culminating in twice violently storming peaceful sunni sit in protests for being marginalized in anbar province that gave rise to isis. the us analyst does a good job of predicting some future events in light of the above events in syria and iraq which is what he's paid for.

Malheur et désespoir ! Enfer et damnation !
Et pour finir, enfin, arrive l’humiliation ?
Je t’avais tout donné, croyant à tes promesses,
Je reçois en retour le fruit de ta bassesse.
Hassan, tu m’abandonnes, je n’ai plus ton soutien !
Je me retrouve tout seul, isolé et sans liens !
J’avais bien apporté ma caution sans limite
à ton gouvernement et au pouvoir chiite !
Qu’arrivera-t-il donc au virulent Bacille ?
Partis… l’opulence et les rêves imbéciles !
Que dirai je à mes filles, à mes petits enfants ?
Moi… ! Moi qui me voyais Président Triomphant !
Adieu Pétrole, Gaz et Électricité,
Commissions, Ristournes et Illicéités.

Mes partisans me quittent et leurs consorts m’évitent,
Jamais déchéance n’est survenue si vite.
Et la sénilité qui me prend de vitesse,
Pèse sur mes épaules, augmente ma détresse,
Rend insupportable le fait de paraître,
Accablé que je suis par un si lourd mal-être.
Mieux vaudrait me cacher à l’abri d’un linceul,
Qu’avoir à assumer la déroute tout seul ?

Aoun you are the problem and solution. Stop your boycott and vote, or step aside.
